Cable Two Arm Tricep Kickback

TricepsCableBeginner
Begin by standing in the middle of a cable machine, feet shoulder-width apart and knees slightly bent. Grasp the handles or attachments, palms facing inwards. Keep your upper body still and hinge forward at the waist, maintaining a flat back. Exhale as you extend both arms straight back, squeezing your triceps at the end of the movement. Inhale as you slowly bend your arms back to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of reps.

How to perform the Cable Two Arm Tricep Kickback

  1. Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Cable Two Arm Tricep Kickback using your cable.
  2. Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your triceps.
  3. Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.

Coaching cues

  • Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
  • Drive force through your triceps rather than momentum.
  • Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.

Common mistakes

  • Using too much weight and losing positional control.
  • Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
  • Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
